This drawing looks like a map or a diagram on graph paper. There’s a big red triangle on the left side, leaning against a grid. Near the top right, small colored rectangles—green, purple, and blue—are stacked like blocks. Below, a black outline makes a smaller, jagged shape with sharp angles. The grid covers the whole thing, giving it a precise, almost mechanical feel. The colors pop against the plain paper, making the shapes stand out. Next, check out cross-hatching to see how artists use lines to create depth.
